I have always wanted to work in the theater. I've always felt the glamour of being backstage and that excitement, but I've never actually done it - not since I was in 5th grade, really. But I've had many plays in my films. I feel like maybe theater is a part of my movie work.

Animating is a very slow, pain-staking process and the animators become the actors at that point.

The movies I make tend not to be quite reality but the characters are inspired by real people and they're always very personal.
Wes Anderson
Image
Sometimes if the people are up for trying something that I'm interested in, it can be a great experience.

The thing with animation is that you record the actors like a radio show and then the animators become actors in their own way because it's their job to take this puppets and make them seem alive. They bring their own personalities to the way they move these puppets.

I have a way of filming things and staging them and designing sets. There were times when I thought I should change my approach, but in fact, this is what I like to do. It's sort of like my handwriting as a movie director. And somewhere along the way, I think I've made the decision: I'm going to write in my own handwriting.

The only thing that takes away from it is when they steal some music from one of my movies and put it in a TV commercial. I am not crazy about influencing TV commercials. But if I legitimately influence someone making a movie, I think that is really flattering.

Some of the ideas are kind of inspired by the songs, and I always want to use music to tell the story and give the movie a certain kind of mood. That's always essential to me.
Wes Anderson

You don't do background music the way a lot of more conventional films do. The music is often kind of a character in your films to the extent that sometimes you stop and watch someone perform a song.

Usually when I'm making a movie, what I have in mind first, for the visuals, is how we can stage the scenes to bring them more to life in the most interesting way, and then how we can make a world for the story that the audience hasn't quite been in before.

I didn't think so much of him at first. But now I get it: he's everything that I'm not.

I will say that Edward Norton, who plays the scout master, would be a first-rate Eagle Scout. He's got all those techniques. If your plane crashes into the jungle somewhere, he would be the guy you would want to have with you.

Sometimes when you're editing a movie, you have the thing that you don't expect - which is you make it longer and longer as you go along.

I don't really look for challenges as much as I like adventures. Other than that I'm just trying to find stories I want to tell.
Wes Anderson
Image
It's not usually that great of an idea to read lots of reviews of your movies, because even if somebody's saying nice things, there'll still be something in there that pushes the wrong button, and it's not really that helpful.

A prototype is always more expensive than anything.

I just now put [Robert Altman] down feeling heartbroken but happily and deeply inspired. . . . Wonderful.

I just want to make films that are personal, but interesting to an audience.
